Italy Trip Itineraries

One Full Day in Rome

Destination(s): Rome

Nowadays, Rome's revered historic monuments coexist with life in a big city. Walking around the historic center, it is almost impossible not to bump into some sort of excavation. For example, the construction of Rome's third metro line has been ongoing for years but is frequently impeded by a new discovery tracing back to ancient Rome!
